Full Service ProviderOur global footprint.
As a full service provider we are able to assist in reducing the total cost of ownership for companies by working with them from early engineering and design stage, right through to specification, manufacturing, quality and logistics.
We adopt a three-tier approach that includes local, national and international teams. TR understands that a global solution creates some challenges; including communication, culture and security.
TR’s global delivery model has been designed from the ground up to address these challenges. Most importantly, our global delivery operations provide customers with both the quality and economic advantages that they require.
Locations in 18 countries
Supply into c.75 countries
A typical TR DLF (Direct Line Feed) system.
This diagram depicts how the average DLF system works, although all TR DLF systems are tailored to individual customer requirements. The first 3 points show the initial set up procedure, after that the system operates in a cyclical manner.
Vendor Managed Inventory benefits:
• Dramatically reduced vendor base and associated administration costs
• TCO - Total Cost of Ownership visible
• Inspection costs reduced as quality approved parts can be shipped direct to the production line
• Reduced cost of stockholding and storage as only a few days’ stock is held on the production line
• Production is allowed to focus on its core function as parts are always available at the point of use

Design and engineering
Our research and engineering capabilities encompass specific engineering disciplines, supporting both our own network and customer application solutions. Our fastener testing capabilities can be summarised into four categories:
• Mechanical• Dimensional• Installation• Plating and finishes
Desktop engineering in 2D and 3D industry standard CAD software:
• CAD system• 3D mechanical design solutions• 3D modelling• Analysis tools• Data management solutions• Drawing and specification, creation and control
Quality
Our aim is to provide a level of product quality that prevents the production of non-conforming fasteners, with the objective of approaching zero defects for specified characteristics.
Customer specific quality standards can also be provided as required. The means of achieving these higher quality standards include: electronic PPAP, supplier development, strategic sourcing as well as camera, laser and roller sorting.
